Whether you’re hosting a big event, planning a wedding, or looking to raise the (sand)bar at your next neighborhood cookout, it may be time to look to the sea for some inspiration.

The Lobster Trap — AVL’s favorite local seafood restaurant — is now offering oyster catering, giving Ashevillians the chance to serve the ultimate crowd-pleaser.

Dive deep into the refreshing flavors of the ocean without the stress or hassle of self-sourcing and shucking. A private oyster shucker is included in every package (read: the only thing your guests have to worry about is how many oysters they can fit on their plate).

Want to take it to the next level? The Lobster Trap also offers fresh, coastal shrimp that can be added to any oyster catering package.

With a commitment to sustainable seafood practices + earned recognition for providing high-quality seafood, every bite from their catering menu is sure to win you the Best Host Ever award. 🦐 *
